Citizen Lobby Day for Lead Free Philly Schools

Online registration for this event has closed. Please contact Nicole Brunet at nicole@pennenvironment.org if you'd like to attend.

The negative health effects from lead contamination are well documented. Yet lead is regularly found in water tested at drinking fountains and sinks in Philadelphia's public schools.

Join our virtual citizen lobby day on Friday, April 22nd to call on Philadelphia city council to take immediate steps to protect Philly kids from the threat of lead in school drinking water.

We’ll schedule 1-2 video meetings with you, your elected officials, and other constituents (30-45 mins each) to discuss the importance of implementing policies to get lead out of Philly Schools drinking water. We’re also planning a virtual kick off and wrap up for you to participate in throughout the day. So RSVP today to make your voice heard!
